Cooking method

• Before us is another variation of German meat bread called "Hare in a cabbage field". Honestly, I would say that it is more likely a cabbage field inside a hare)))) but the Germans know better.
• The hare in this case, apparently, symbolizes minced meat (although it has never been a hare), and the cabbage field is the roach of Brussels sprouts.
• So: prepare all the ingredients: twist the minced meat or buy ready-made. It should be a pre-mixed 50:50 pork-beef recipe. You look at your capabilities. I have mixed minced meat, but with a predominance of pork. Twist the onion and garlic into the minced meat. Soak the bread in milk, cut the bacon into strips.
• 
• Rub the apple into the minced meat.
• 
• Combine minced meat with bread and eggs. Knead until smooth. (I added a bit of semolina, since the bread was not enough). Season with salt and pepper. I wanted to keep the pink color of the meat loaf, so I used some of the salt (about 8 grams) nitrite. You can do with the usual.
• 
• Boil Brussels sprouts until al dente. Throw on drushlag.
• 
• Half of the minced meat and place in a greased dish. Spread cabbage on top. Cover with the second part of minced meat and smooth. Top with slices of bacon.
• 
• 
• Bake at 180 gr. until ready. We check the readiness by piercing the loaf. If the juice is clear, then it's ready. We eat with gusto.

Note

Why the Germans called this dish so - I don't know. By the way, the increased love of hares for cabbage is, in my opinion, a common stereotype. No, they certainly don't mind using young shoots. But in winter - as long as we go hunting, we raised hares anywhere - in a beet field, carrot, corn, sunflower, vegetable gardens, weeds, just in plowing, on green plants. On cabbage, never. But maybe German hares are special? Or are they hefty baluvanny?

Elena, a cool name (maybe a hare in the field, which has already eaten cabbage, and it is inside a hare) and an original cutter! At first I thought that the cucumber was salty ...

I'd say that he just ate cabbage. Lies - digests. I'm thinking, next time I need to put carrot sticks between the cabbage. It will be more elegant. You will get a hare in a carrot and cabbage field.
